Individual & Family Services - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States
Beyond Literacy expands opportunities for adults and families by unleashing the power of literacy through free, high-quality education. In Spring 2021, the merger between Center for Literacy (CFL) and Community Learning Center (CLC) brought together 87 total years of literacy experience that has created lasting, positive impacts, not just for individual students, but for their families and the community at large.The merger is the result of a long-term, board-led process that allowed both organizations to carefully explore how they could maximize their ability to combat low-literacy by combining forces, rather than working in parallel. By uniting together, the combined agency – renamed Beyond Literacy – goes above and beyond to offer strong transformational services and classes to those seeking a way to a better life.
